Updating Views from non-UI threads
问题 I am confused about how the Android system works, specially when it updates the view hierarchy. We all know that we should not update any view from any thread other than UI (Main) thread . And even Android system throws exception when we try to do so. The other day I was trying to implement a custom progress showing view in my application. So I started with using standard Java threads and handler combo. What I found surprised me as I was able to update a TextView from background thread. new
